Added

  • Jina Reader ships as a built-in skill. Mention $jina-reader with a
    public webpage or PDF URL to read it through Jina Reader using curl. It
    covers Markdown, text, HTML, JSON and screenshot links, works without a key
    for basic access, and supports optional JINA_API_KEY authentication. Like
    skill-creator, it is installed on first launch, preserves local edits and
    can be disabled through /skills; custom skill-directory overrides remain
    untouched. Loading the skill itself makes no network request
    (docs/skills.md).

  • The agent knows which user it runs as. The environment block in its
    system prompt gains a User line — User root, User linuztx — so it
    knows whether it is root before it reaches for sudo. Root is decided by
    the user id, never by a name: a root account under another name reads
    toor (root), a leftover $USER=root cannot make an ordinary user look
    like root, and an account with no name reads uid 1000. Subagents carry
    the same line (docs/environment.md).

Changed

  • Shorter, clearer skill-tool guidance. The description tells the model
    to load a matching or mentioned skill once and reuse its instructions while
    they remain in context. It removes conflicting advice that required another
    tool call whenever mentioning a skill.

Fixed

  • Repeated skill calls no longer duplicate instructions in context. The
    executor returns a short "already loaded" reminder without rereading
    SKILL.md or appending its body, even when the model repeats a call within
    the same batch. Detection follows each agent's actual context across turns,
    resumed sessions, and subagent continuations; each new subagent can load
    its own copy. Compaction, clearing, or backtracking permits a fresh load
    when the original instructions are gone. Failed loads remain retryable,
    disabled skills remain unavailable, and name aliases, hook-rewritten calls,
    and secret-masked directory headers are handled (docs/skills.md).
  • Each account gets its own temp directory where /proc is missing.
    The session's scratchpad and background output live under
    alter-zero-{uid}, and the uid was read from /proc/self, which answered
    0 wherever /proc is absent: on a Linux sandbox without it every account
    shared /tmp/alter-zero-0, where a second account could not create its
    session. The uid now comes from the kernel's effective uid on every
    platform (docs/background.md).
